| 11. | Vibrations are transmitted into the inner ear into a fluid called endolymph, which fills the membranous labyrinth.
|
| 12. | The semicircular canals are filled with endolymph, and also contain an inner membranous sleeve that form semicircular ducts.
|
| 13. | Calcium carbonate is diffused through the endolymph cell membrane and the aragonite layers are permanently deposited in discrete increments.
|
| 14. | The fluids in these two tubes, the endolymph and the perilymph are very different chemically, biochemically, and electrically.
|
| 15. | Here the border between endolymph and perilymph occurs at the reticular lamina, the endolymph side of the organ of Corti.
|
| 16. | Here the border between endolymph and perilymph occurs at the reticular lamina, the endolymph side of the organ of Corti.
|
| 17. | If the endolymph fluid mixes with the fluid on the basal domain the neurons become depolarized, causing complete hearing loss.
|
| 18. | The lateral wall of the cochlear duct is formed by the spiral ligament and the stria vascularis, which produces the endolymph.
|
| 19. | In rare cases, the crystals themselves can adhere to a semicircular canal cupula, rendering it heavier than the surrounding endolymph.
|
| 20. | Potassium is the major cation in the endolymph and is thought to be responsible for carrying the receptor currents in the cochlea.
